In Country Cruising, Liam Reynolds transforms a pastoral farm scene into a surreal playground of contradiction and whimsy. Cows roam beneath floating purple cars, apples rest neatly in the foreground, and oversized traffic lights loom behind a bright red barn—all rendered in bold, flat color and confident, expressive brushwork.
With its offbeat logic and playful symbolism, the painting blurs rural nostalgia with urban absurdity. Reynolds invites collectors to find meaning in the unexpected—making Country Cruising a vibrant, thought-provoking addition to any contemporary art collection.
Liam Reynolds is a self-taught Ontario artist whose work resists rigid ideas of what art should be. Blending oil, pastel, ink, and sound, he creates contemplative, joyful pieces grounded in freedom, beauty, and conscious living.
